Entanglement observed in near-macroscopic objects
Perhaps the strangest prediction of quantum theory is entanglement, a phenomenon whereby two distant objects become intertwined in a manner that defies both classical physics and a common-sense understanding of reality. In ...
Next step towards quantum network based on micromechanical beams
In recent years, nanofabricated mechanical oscillators have emerged as a promising platform for quantum information applications. Quantum entanglement of engineered optomechanical resonators would offer a compelling route ...
Using a quantum blockchain to protect blockchains of the future
A pair of researchers with Victoria University of Wellington has suggested that the way to prevent future blockchains from future hackers using quantum computers is to use quantum blockchains. Theoretical physicists Del Rajan ...
Quantum dots enable faster, easier photon detection, more secure data
A team of researchers including U of A engineering and physics faculty has developed a new method of detecting single photons, or light particles, using quantum dots.
Scientists roll 2-D cadmium telluride into nanoscrolls
A team of scientists from the Faculty of Chemistry and the Faculty of Materials Science, MSU, together with foreign colleagues, discovered that two-dimensional sheets of cadmium telluride can spontaneously fold into nanoscrolls. ...
Yale plays quantum catch in new research
Yale's latest work expanding the reach of quantum information science is actually a game of quantum pitch and catch.
Quantum radar will expose stealth aircraft
Stealth aircraft in the Canadian arctic will be no match for a new quantum radar system.
Processing power beyond Moore's Law
In 1965, businessman and computer scientist Gordon Moore observed that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years, which means a doubling of computer processing power. The ...
Molecular motor: Four states of rotation
With the help of ultrafast spectroscopy and quantum mechanical calculations, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) in Munich researchers have characterized the complete rotational cycle of the light-driven, chemical motor ...
